Soccer in Motion...Cima

The game this week was like a moving target.  Each day a different field was listed for the game.  Finally, on Friday night confirmation came they would be playing at the high school.  I thought the girls would be excited to play there but that was not the case.  The field is too big, it's artificial turf, anand it's going to be so hot.

We arrived early enough to watch the 2005 Rage Boy Teams game.  It was an intense game full of action.  The first time watching the Goalie come out of the box a little bit too far and the other team ran around him straight to the goal.  The goalie was running behind him but couldn't get back in place before he ran the ball right in.

The girls were ready to play and without any subs.  The whistle blew and they were off.  This week Reganne started as goalie and quickly found herself on the receiving end of a few to many balls.  She did awesome with 25 attempts and gave up 4.

Got it!!!

A good kick high and long.

Another great kick.
She has developed a good hard kick that makes the players cringe.

Half time couldn't come soon enough.  The girls were tired, sweaty, and needed a break.  The whistle blew way too soon.  They were off once again trying to take control of the ball.

This half Reganne was playing mid defender and she had her work cut out for  her.  The girls made it down the field for two attempts at the goal.  However, Cima was ready to take control back and they were soon pounding on our goal again.

Trying to protect the goal.
It was even a harder 2nd half with another 4 goals scored.  We needed a few more high and far balls to get them away from our goal.  The girls were not pleased with their performance but players with bad attitudes and really tear a team apart.  They have one more game this season.  The girls want to bad to win one more.  They are willing to put in the work this week.  Lets hope the bad attitudes don't appear and they will get their chance.
